Agora -- Special Type of Open Space

[Bonner, Peter]

Hello All --

My name is Peter Bonner and I do organizational change work for a consulting
company in Virginia. I have participated in some Open Space events and acted
as facilitator both for a few Open Space meetings for clients and inside my
company. A client has asked me about something called an Open Space Agora
and described it as an auction process that matches process problems with
potential solutions. (I know an Agora is a gathering place or a marketplace,
but I've never heard the term used in combination with Open Space.) It
sounds like something far afield of the Open Space events I've participated
in and read about, but I thought I'd ask the question: Has anyone heard of
Open Space Agora? If so, does it have anything to do with Open Space
Technology?

Thank for your help.

Peter Bonner
